Australian Onshore Petroleum Exploration History and Potential

The 1960s to 2013 period covers Australia's petroleum exploration history, from early onshore discoveries to a modern resurgence in unconventional resources. This dataset documents the shift from offshore Mesozoic basins, which contain most conventional oil and gas, back to onshore Paleozoic and Proterozoic basins for shale and tight gas potential. Geoscience Australia and partners conducted new assessments during a period where onshore exploration license area nearly doubled from 2010 to 2012.

Australian Unconventional Hydrocarbon Exploration in Paleozoic Basins

Australia's onshore basin area under exploration license nearly doubled from 2010 to 2012. The dataset is an extended abstract and presentation from the APPEA Conference & Exhibition 2013, authored by researchers from Geoscience Australia and partners, discussing the shift in focus back to onshore shale and tight gas potential in older rocks. It cites discoveries like the Mereenie oil field and the Blina discovery, noting that about 90% or more of Australia's conventional oil and gas is in offshore Mesozoic marginal basins.
